Serge Nubret often only at one meal a day, albeit a huge one.
6-7 meals vs 2-3 meals makes no difference if your caloric intake and macros are the same!

Rubbish lol. Major overtraining and 10 meals is ridiculous. Sounds like his ‘train arms all day’ thing he did a while ago. Something he now admits was bollocks.

Yes, it can be effective. However, is it more effective than if the same cals/protein are taken over a longer eating period? I’m not convinced.

Download my book of free meal plans with help to plan around protein levels. You’d need around 280g chicken, but also to remember to count the protein in the other foods that you are eating you’re chicken with.

If you infuse (IV) amino acids at a constant rate, protein synthesis will begin but will stop after a few hours. You could continue the infusion all day long and still be catabolic. Stopping for a while and then resuming will restart anabolism.

I haven’t been able to find any good research on what thresholds and/or rates of change of serum amino acids control the switch between anabolism and catabolism. Layne Norton made a start. Anyone have good data?

Also a question I had on the pre work post receipe is that do we take beta alanine everyday or just before a workout because like creatine it works over time

I’ve been doing IF for almost 18 months now, and I typically have an 8 hour eating window where I’ll have 2 or 3 meals in total; as a result, I tend to consume 70-100g of protein per meal to meet my daily requirements. Since eating this way I recover much faster, burn fat a lot easier and have noticed that I can add muscle easier than when I used to follow a typical BB eating schedule – not bad for a guy who is nearly 35 and is in better shape than when he was in his 20s!

Did you see Rich Piana recent blog? 30lb of muscle in 3 months. On the juice but recommending everyone to try the workout…? Sounds like conflict of ideas there! He ends up stating: “In the end we’re gonna be doing 10 meals a day, 2 and a half hours of training, and probably about an hour and 15 minutes of cardio”.
And he thinks this is also suitable for natty people……!?

When I started training I was eating 20g protein x 10 times a day! No joke. And my friend was setting an alarm to drink a shake in the middle of the night!
